    what was the oldest any of you were when you last got id'd buying booze?
    i'm 29 and got asked for id last night in asda, i was with my sis who is 27 and we got asked for id, sis wasnt impressed but i was chuffed!! :D

    25 or 26 for booze, but got asked last year (27) when buying cigarettes and, erm, a kitchen knife (not at the same time :rotfl:)

    I got i'd a few weeks back in Sainsburys for cigs. I had my 2 kids with me the eldest is 5! More embarrassing was I didnt have any ID with me - I had to get my dad to buy them - it was lucky he was with me! x


    i think you have to be 18 to buy cigs don't you?
    i was never asked for id before i was 18, i was on my sisters hen night a few months ago and got asked then aswell, luckily i had some!!

  • Well, I've set my iTunes on 'party shuffle' so here's my last 10 songs I've listened to...

    Defying Gravity (from Wicked the musical)
    Bryan Adams - Summer of 69
    The Darkness - Friday Night (a day out, but hey!)
    The Killers - Bones
    Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen In Love?
    Morrissey - Irish Blood, English Heart
    Kirsty Macoll - A New England (Billy Bragg cover)
    Suede - My Dark Star
    Close Every Door (from Joseph)
    Tom Lehrer - Oedipus Rex


    Anyone else care to list theirs? You've got to include the cringeworthy ones if I've admitted to Summer of 69* :p
    I'm going to pour myself another [strike]glamorous cocktail[/strike] lemsip :)

    *Which is clearly just not as good as When You're Gone.... ahem, going into hiding now!
